Education

Paul-Binyamin graduated from Beit Berl College with a Bachelors of Education in 1989. She received her master's degree from Bar-Ilan University Department of Informal Education in 1997, and received her PhD in 2006 from the University of Haifa’s Department of Sociology and Anthropology.

Paul-Binyamin's research focuses on Education in Israel. Her areas of expertise includes shared society in Israel,[2] multicultural education,[3] education policy, and qualitative research methods.[4]

She has published numerous papers on these topics, ranging from religious students in public-sector colleges,[5] to bilingual schools in divided societies.

Beit Berl College

In 2019, Paul-Binyamin was appointed the Dean of the Faculty of Education at Beit Berl College, where she was a senior lecturer since 2017. She has also served as a lecturer at Tel Aviv University.[6]

Paul-Binyamin co-directed the Center for Education for Shared Society at Beit Berl College along with Mary Copti until she became Dean of the college in 2019.[7] The goal of the center is to change the way Israeli teachers see the society and teach their students. Students learn about the socio-economic makeup of Jews and Arabs in Israel and the dynamics of minority-majority relations, and how to talk about and teach these topics.
